Which is the greater evil? I'm a pretty radical individualist
and libertarian, and I admire as heroes those who risk their
lives to escape slavery and tyranny; but I /do/ hold my own life
to be a greater value even than freedom, and I /do not/ honor or
admire those who would sacrifice their lives for no purpose or
with no result.
